The wardrobe is only a portal meant for the Pevensies(sp) to go through in order to get to Narnia. A plot device.

Thats what I probably thought it was. But..then it almost at times seems to be "in the Wardrobe"

In some ways it seems like that, but I agree that it's just another door into the world of Narnia. If you remember, Narnia existed before the wardrobe and the wardrobe was created from something out of that world...so no I don't think it's in the wardrobe per se...it just seems like it in the movie and to Lucy. To me it's just another door into that world.

And, to support that, characters enter Narnia through other portals as well. Eustace and Jill are certainly examples of that (not to mention the Last Battle, of course). Good insight, ITW

What about when Peter says, "Well, logically..... we're not even taking them out of the wardrobe."

Well, from his limited perspective at the time he would have thought that. However, I think he learned better later...especially after the Professor would have told him how the wardrobe came to be. Remember that he said that when he first entered Narnia and on the whole knew little to nothing about it.

It would be like asking if Narnia was in the painting of the Dawn Treader. Or if the worlds were in the pools in Magian's Nephew.

There were many portals to Narnia. The wardrobe, picture, mountain cave, school gate, and pool were just a few that were actually named and used.
